Legal
Terms of Service
Effective August 23, 2026
These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) are a binding agreement between you and SiteSpawners. They govern every visit to this website, every inquiry, and every website rental. This is a rental, not a sale. You do not buy or own the website. If you do not agree, do not subscribe and do not use the service.
01The agreement
By clicking to subscribe, submitting an order, paying a fee, or using a SiteSpawners-hosted site, you accept these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you are buying for a shop, you confirm you have authority to bind that shop. These Terms are the entire agreement for the rental. Nothing in a sales call, email, or social post is a sale of the website. Informal messages do not change these Terms unless we put the change in writing and you accept it.
02This is a rental. You do not own the site.
SiteSpawners rents professionally designed websites to small businesses on a monthly subscription. We design, host, secure, back up, and maintain the site. You are paying monthly rent for the right to use a live website while your account is current. You are not buying the website. You do not own the website, the design, the code, the templates, the hosting, the domain we provide, or the Platform. Paying rent, requesting revisions, or using the site for a long time does not turn the rental into a purchase.
There is one price for every shop: $30 per month, billed in advance. A new signup includes two revision rounds. Any change after those two is paid separately at $20 per revision, unless we agree to a different amount in writing. Traffic and resource limits apply to every rental. No rental is unlimited. We may improve the service. We are not a law firm, advertising agency, or search-engine company, and we do not promise rankings, leads, or sales.
03Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a contract. The service is for legitimate businesses and trades, not for personal consumer use. You must provide true business and contact information. We may refuse, suspend, or cancel a rental if we reasonably believe the information is false, the use is prohibited, or the risk to us or others is too high.
04Orders, setup, and your duties
After you subscribe we will collect copy, photos, hours, service lists, and other materials needed to spawn the site. You agree to respond in a reasonable time. Delay on your side is not a refund event and does not pause billing once a subscription has started, unless we agree otherwise in writing.
You are responsible for the accuracy of everything you give us: prices, licenses, insurance claims, service areas, before-and-after photos, testimonials, and legal notices required for your trade (including cottage-food, contractor, and professional rules). We may display that material as you provided it. We do not independently verify your licenses or claims.
05Fees, billing, and auto-renewal
Subscriptions are billed in advance for each monthly period at the then-current plan rate, plus any taxes we are required to collect. Unless you cancel before the next renewal date, the subscription renews automatically each month and you authorize us (and our payment processor) to charge the payment method on file.
Failed or disputed charges may result in suspension of the rented site until the account is current. We may retry the charge. You remain responsible for amounts owed for periods already begun, including overage charges for traffic or storage above your plan cap. We do not store full card numbers on our systems; cards are handled by a PCI-compliant payment processor.
Prices may change. If we raise the price of your plan we will give you notice before the change applies to a renewal. Continuing to pay after that notice is acceptance of the new price. Promotional rates last only for the period stated.
06Refunds
Monthly rent is earned when the period starts. We do not refund partial months, unused revisions, unused extra-change fees, or setup already performed, except where a law requires it. If we cancel your account for convenience (not for your breach), we will refund prepaid unused time. Chargebacks opened in bad faith are a breach; we may recover the amount plus reasonable costs.
07SiteSpawners owns the website and everything on it
The rented website, and everything in it as it appears to the public, is the exclusive property of SiteSpawners. That includes, without limitation: the site as a whole; page structure and layout; design, templates, code, and style; headlines, body copy, and other verbiage we write or place; pictures, graphics, icons, logos we create, and photo treatments; buttons, forms, menus, and calls to action; color, typography, and motion; and any SEO titles, descriptions, or schema we add. Paying rent does not buy any of it. Using it, requesting revisions, or supplying ideas does not make it yours.
You may have owned certain materials before you hired us — for example your legal business name, a trademark you already registered, or a photo you took and handed to us (“Pre-Existing Materials”). You keep whatever ownership you already had in those Pre-Existing Materials. You do not own how they appear on the rented site. The compiled page, the crop, the rewrite, the layout around a photo, and any new copy or image we create are SiteSpawners property even if they were inspired by what you sent.
You grant SiteSpawners a worldwide, royalty-free license to host, reproduce, adapt, crop, rewrite for the web, and display Pre-Existing Materials on the rented site and in our portfolio and records for as long as needed to provide the service and for a reasonable archive after it ends. You represent that you have the right to grant that license.
SiteSpawners and its licensors own the Platform: templates, layouts, code, design system, tooling, hosting configuration, and the SiteSpawners name and crest. The monthly fee buys you a limited, revocable, non-transferable license to use the Platform as your public website only while the rental is paid and in good standing. You acquire no ownership, title, copyright, or equity in the website, the pictures, the verbiage, or the Platform.
You may not copy, scrape, download as a working site, republish, resell, sublicense, reverse engineer, screenshot for reuse as your own marketing kit, claim the design or copy as your work, or use the Platform to run a competing website-rental business. When the rental ends, the license ends. You must stop using the site and stop using any SiteSpawners-created pictures, verbiage, or design except as allowed in the file-handoff section below.
08File handoff is not a transfer of the site
If you cancel in good standing and ask in writing, we will deliver a reasonable export of Pre-Existing Materials you supplied and a static snapshot of the public pages as they existed at cancellation, within thirty days. That snapshot is a courtesy copy of how the pages looked. It is not the website, not source code, not a transferable site, not a sale, and not a grant of copyright in our pictures, verbiage, or design. The handoff does not include our Platform, templates, design system, hosting, or any right to keep using the SiteSpawners-hosted site or to republish SiteSpawners-created copy or images as your own. After we deliver the files, you are responsible for any new host. We may take the live rental down and delete our live copy after a short archive period.
09Acceptable use
You will not use the service, and will not ask us to publish:
- Anything illegal, fraudulent, or defamatory
- Content you do not have the right to use
- Adult sexual content, hate, harassment, or content that exploits minors
- Malware, phishing, or deceptive “get rich” schemes
- False reviews, fake credentials, or claims that violate advertising or consumer-protection law
- Using the rented site as a CDN, video host, download server, or to generate or attract traffic beyond your traffic cap
We may take down content or suspend a site immediately if we reasonably believe it violates this section or exposes us to legal risk. Repeat or serious violations are grounds for termination without refund.
10Revisions, extra changes, and turnaround
A new paid subscription includes two revision rounds. A revision round is one batch of requested changes to copy, photos, hours, services, colors, or contact details that we complete in a single pass. The two included rounds do not renew each month, do not roll over, and have no cash value if unused. Fixes for a mistake we made do not count against the two.
After the two included rounds are used, every further change is an extra revision. Extra revisions cost $20 each, billed and paid before we start the work, unless we confirm a different price in writing. New pages, new features, custom code, and rush work are extra revisions or a separate quote — they are not included in the $30 monthly rent. Turnaround is a target, not a guarantee, and excludes delays caused by you, third parties, or events outside our control.
We will use commercially reasonable care to keep the site online within the traffic and resource limits in these Terms. Hosting, domain, and network outages can still happen. Scheduled maintenance and force-majeure events are not breaches.
11Traffic, bandwidth, and resource limits
Every rental is a shared, small-business website — not an unlimited host, CDN, or app platform. Hard caps apply to every site. We may measure visits, bandwidth, storage, CPU, memory, and request rate using our hosting, CDN, and log tools. Our measurements control if there is a dispute.
Unless we agree to different numbers in writing, each rented site is capped each billing month at 10,000 visits, 10 GB of bandwidth, and 1 GB of storage.
A “visit” is a request for a page or document that our tools count as a session hit, including bots, scrapers, and hotlinked files. Caps reset each billing month. They do not roll over. Burst traffic still counts. Video, large downloads, podcasts, software, and using the site as a file dump or CDN are not allowed.
We also cap resources as we reasonably need to protect the platform, including concurrent connections, requests per second, form posts on domain-connected contact forms, image size, and CPU or memory. We may change those engineering caps without rewriting this page if the change is needed to keep the service stable.
If a site approaches or exceeds a cap — including a sudden spike, viral post, campaign, or attack — we may, with or without prior notice: throttle or cache the site, serve a lightweight “high traffic” page, disable heavy features (galleries, video, downloads, forms), charge an overage of $15 per extra 10,000 visits or $8 per extra GB (whichever is greater), require a custom rate, or suspend the live site until traffic drops or you accept a custom rate. Overage is billed to the payment method on file.
We are not liable for missed leads, lost sales, search-ranking changes, or reputational harm because a site was throttled, queued, or taken offline for traffic, attack, or resource use. If we decide a spike was a DDoS or similar attack on our network, we may still take the site down to protect other customers; that downtime is not a refund event.
Higher limits exist only if we confirm them in writing (including price). Asking for more traffic is not an agreement. Continuing to send traffic above a cap after we notify you is a breach.
12Third parties
The rented site may use maps, fonts, analytics, or a payment processor that we or you connect. A contact form is included only when you have a domain we can connect. Those services have their own terms. We are not liable for outages, policy changes, or data handling by third parties we do not control. Search engines, social platforms, and Google Business Profiles are outside this rental.
13Cancellation and suspension
You may cancel at any time through the contact channel we provide. Cancellation stops the next renewal if we receive it before the renewal date. The current paid period continues until it ends unless we agree to take the site down sooner.
We may suspend or terminate immediately for non-payment, prohibited use, traffic or resource-cap abuse, abuse of staff, or legal risk. After termination the license ends. You have no further right to use the website. The live site may be taken down, unused plan features are forfeited, and you still do not own the site.
14Disclaimer of warranties
THE SERVICE AND EVERY RENTED SITE ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT THE LAW ALLOWS, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT UNINTERRUPTED UPTIME, ERROR-FREE CODE, SEARCH RANKINGS, LEAD VOLUME, UNLIMITED TRAFFIC, OR THAT THE SITE WILL MEET EVERY BUSINESS OR LEGAL NEED YOU HAVE.
15Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT THE LAW ALLOWS, SITESPAWNERS AND ITS OWNERS, FAMILY MEMBERS, CONTRACTORS, AND SUPPLIERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST LEADS, LOST DATA, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY.
OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF THE SERVICE IS LIMITED TO THE FEES YOU PAID US FOR THE THREE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITS; IN THOSE STATES OUR LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED.
16Indemnity
You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless SiteSpawners and its owners, family members, and contractors from claims, damages, and reasonable legal fees arising out of Pre-Existing Materials, your business, your use of the rented site, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of anyone else’s rights. We may take control of the defense of a claim that names us; you will cooperate.
17Changes
We may update these Terms. The revised Terms apply to the next renewal after we post them on this page, or sooner if you agree. Material changes will be flagged on the site or by email if we have one on file. If you do not agree, cancel before the next renewal.
18Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. You and SiteSpawners will first try to resolve a dispute in good faith through our contact channel. If that fails, exclusive venue is the state or federal courts located in Florida, and you consent to personal jurisdiction there. You waive class actions to the extent the law allows. Either party may still seek injunctive relief for misuse of intellectual property or confidential information.
19General
If a court strikes one clause, the rest still stands. Our failure to enforce a right is not a waiver. You may not assign the rental without our written consent; we may assign it in a sale of the business. Notices to you may go to the email on your order. Notices to us go through the Contact page. Headings are for reading ease only.
